PM asks for investigation into money change rumors

The Government chief affirmed that the rumors were “false and ill-intentional” that may do harms on the country’s business environment and macro-economy.

He called on the whole society to strongly condemn the rumors spread on social media in recent days with the intention of inciting people to hoard gold and foreign currencies, causing chaos and anxiety among the public.

Earlier, the State Bank of Viet Nam had also affirmed that the rumors were fabricated and citizens need to be vigilant to avoid economic losses and ensure national monetary security.

Deputy Governor of the State Bank of Viet Nam Dao Minh Tu told reporters that “there are no reasons to change money, including the structure of face values.”
